SUNNY SAM. Sam Jenkins, 61, immediate past president of the Sun Bowl Association, has been named executive director of the post-season game. He succeeds Donnie Duncan who resigned to become executive director of Jacksonville's Gator Bowl. Jenkins said the Sun Bowl, hurt by the cancellation of its long-standing CBS contract, said the Sun Bowl is negotiating with CBS for a new contract that would ensure the continuity of the nation's third oldest bowl game, founded 53 years ago.
